Dental Therapy

Summary

The bill creates a regulatory framework for dental therapists in Florida, defining the profession, establishing a council, and setting licensing, continuing‑education and supervision requirements. It expands Medicaid to pay for dental services delivered in mobile units that are owned, operated, or contracted with specified health‑access settings. Dentists would retain primary responsibility for patient care while supervising the therapists.
